You've got to take the Oilers because:
1. If they'd met in their primes they would have stomped the Canadiens, no question.
2. The Oilers will have the only bonafide NHLer in the lineup in Mark Messier
3. The game is being played at Commonwealth stadium so the Canadiens oldtimers will let the home team win - if they don't they're a bunch of d1cks

I can just imagine what people will say if Messier gets hurt. I know it won't happen, but lets see some checks some "old-fashioned hockey" as the Hansens would say. How about a fight between Semenko and Nilan just so we can hear after the game Gretz talking about how terrible fighting is despite 55,000 people screaming at the top of their lungs as it happens!
Why should I care, the NHL doesn't think I want to watch it...
